Got both and used both and they work just fine. :tup:  Can't go wrong with either one, just what ever you prefer. :dunno:  If you can't decide then just get both and tell the wife they had a sale two for one, buy one get the other half off or something. :dunno: :chuckle:

Thank you everyone for your advise and suggestions. It is very very awesome to hear everyone's opinion, I personally learned a lot! I have decided to go with a Tikka T3 Lite .308.... I do like the variety of choices with the bullets and the availability of military surplus prices, which will allow me to practice a lot more. I believe this will suit me well. I wish I had the $$$ to buy both calibers :)


Now the problem is where to find this rifle, FOR A GOOD PRICE.

:yeah:

I'm glad someone else thinks like I do! The cost of a rifle pales in comparison to the cost of being good with it. I really would like one of those but I got something more in the "cool" factor in my opinion in the works. Have fun with that gun. Pretty sweet deal tikka has with em.

Yeah, its a shame to get a very accurate rifle with a decent trigger right out of the box. I can't believe someone would do that especially when it costs well under a grand. FOR SHAME!!!
